Reliable Water Supply for Fire Emergencies
When emergency services arrive on-site, they need a dependable water supply to fight a fire effectively — that's the role fire hydrants and hydrant booster systems play. Flaming North Fire Protection supplies, services and maintains fire hydrants and booster systems, ensuring QFES has the water supply they need when responding to a fire on your property.
Hydrants are generally required where street hydrant coverage is insufficient, or where a building exceeds 500 square metres in area. We service businesses across North Queensland, including Townsville, Cairns and the Western Region, providing a full range of hydrant parts and services to keep your system compliant and ready.
Call our Cairns branch on (07) 4725 6672 or our Townsville branch on (07) 4054 6905 to discuss fire hydrant servicing for your site.
Frequently Asked Questions
When are fire hydrants required on a property?
Fire hydrants are typically required where street hydrant coverage is insufficient, or where a building's area exceeds 500 square metres. Requirements vary depending on the building's classification, location and proximity to existing hydrant infrastructure under relevant regulations.
What is a fire hydrant booster system?
A fire hydrant booster system is a connection point that allows fire services to pump additional water into a building's hydrant system if required. It ensures adequate water pressure and supply is available during firefighting operations, particularly in larger buildings.
How often do fire hydrants need to be tested?
Fire hydrants require flow testing and servicing at six monthly, yearly and five yearly intervals, in accordance with AS 1851 Section 4. Each interval involves different levels of testing, ensuring the hydrant system remains compliant and fully operational.
